As Seen On Screen

As Seen on Screen offers readers a chance to see film reviews for the everyman, without all of the clutter and nonsense fed to the average filmgoer. Plain, straitforward, to the point. That's our goal. We offer a diverse catalogue of which to choose from, from silent comedies to modern superhero films. Final note: this is a family friendly blog. We only review films rated G through PG-13, plus the unrated films of yesteryear. So if this sounds like your cup of tea, pull up a crumpet and enjoy. Thanks for your support!

     The Cheyenne Social Club
1970  PG  WESTERN  1h 43min
CAST— Henry Fonda, James Stewart, Shirley Jones, Sue Ane Langdon, Elaine Devry
MUSIC— Walter Scharf  DIRECTOR— Gene Kelly

     OK Western-comedy features James Stewart and Henry Fonda as two cowboys who trek from Texas to Wyoming. Upon arrival in the town of Cheyenne the two discover that the property Stewart has come to claim is a brothel. Stewart decides that the decent thing to do would be shutting down, putting a number of working girls out of business. This angers the entire town, some townsfolk viewing the cathouse as a home away from home. The tone is kept light, but the padding is awfully thick.
OUR RATING— ** ½
